Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

To draw at least 2,000 people to the Lake Harriet Band Shell for an orchestra and choral memorial concert which recognizes the victims of the 9-11 disaster as well as honor the local first responders for their indefatigable courage in protecting citizens in Minnesota. Because each person who attends received a small American flag, we anticipate that more than 2,000 flags will be distributed during the event. Post-performance feedback has been an excellent method of evaluation for the Minnesota 9-11 Tribute along with on-site surveys. These methods continue to be our evaluation protocols for measuring outcomes.
